Hello all, I've been reading KarafeForums for a while now, and I've found it very helpful. Thanks! I finally decided to stop lurking and introduce myself. I just started practicing the Shotokan karate style in February, and am enjoying it a lot so far. By way of conversation, I wonder how much your karate instructors understand that they may have to repeat their instructions. I often find that when an instructor corrects my technique, try as I might, I often keep making the same mistake. I find myself hoping that they understand that it's not that I'm ignoring their correction, but that I just have a hard time getting my body to do the technique right. Anyway, thanks for the great forum!
